Depending on how it broke off really determines if you can easily put another one back on. The door is only held by two hex head machine screws. If it is rusted out, you have a bigger problem. If you just broke the door off, get another one from the scrap yard.

dont weld next to the gas tank unless you would like to blow yourself up along with your car...which i guess the car wouldnt be of any use to you if u blew up

So did it break at the hinges above the mount plate? If so, simple replace, new door assembly, two screws, but pay attention to the cable release, which is behind the fenderwall.
